The ADA encourages and authorizes drug tests on employees for security purposes only.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The ADA does not authorize drug tests on employees for security purposes only. Drug testing must be job-related and consistent with business necessity, and must not discriminate against individuals with disabilities. The ADA prohibits pre-employment drug testing except in certain industries where there are safety concerns, and only allows drug testing of current employees if there is reasonable suspicion of drug use or if drugs would pose a direct threat to the employee or others in the workplace.
